ANOKA DAKOTA HENNEPIN RAMSEY SCOTT WASHINGTON CARVER Extent of Main Map 012340.5 Miles 12/20/2016 City of Hugo, Washington CountySolar Access Protection Goals The following are the City’s goals for solar access protection: • To ensure reasonable access to direct sunlight is available to all parcels so that alternative forms of energy can be used to supplement or replace conventional forms of energy� • To reduce maintenance and energy costs of public facilities and infrastructure� Policies for Solar Access Protection It is the city’s policy to: 1� Ensure existing levels of solar access are maintained in developed neighborhoods� 2� Encourage future site and building plans to maximize efforts to design for efficient use of solar energy 3� Evaluate and use where possible solar energy design elements for future public facilities and infrastructure development� 4� Work with the League of Minnesota Cities, University of Minnesota Extension Services, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Washington County, the Builders Association of the Twin Cities and other agencies to develop programs that increase use of solar energy systems� The City has adopted a solar ordinance to allow solar energy systems on individual homes and solar farms in the Long Term Agricultural (LA), Agricultural (AG), Rural Residential (RR), and Future Urban Service (FUS) Districts� The gross solar generation potential and the gross solar rooftop generation potential are estimates of how much electricity could be generated using existing technology and assumptions on the efficiency of conversion� The Metropolitan Council estimates that the potential for solar in the community is shown in Table 7�1and the locations where there is the most potential for solar generation is shown in Figure 7-1� Gross Solar Potential is not an indication of suitability for the siting of solar in the community. It only indicates potential.
